Mumbai: There seems to be no end to the feud between Hrithik Roshan and Kangana Ranaut, with the National Award winning actress on Saturday, asking why he needs his father to rescue him from controversies.

Recently, Hrithik's father and filmmaker Rakesh Roshan had said in an interview that his son chose to remain calm and dignified when someone was spreading lies about him (referring to the battle between Kangana and Hrithik).

He had even said that if Hrithik chose to come out with the truth, it would shock everyone.

Initially, when the journalist at the event asked Kangana to comment, her sister Rangoli came to her rescue saying the question can be skipped, although Kangana chose to respond.

"Why can't men stand up for themselves. He (Hrithik) is a 43-year old man. I just can't understand why his father has to come to rescue him from all these small controversies," the 'Queen' actress said. Kangana was talking at the launch of Chetan Bhagat's latest novel, 'One Indian Girl'.

The controversy between the two actors had begun when Kangana mentioned 'silly exes' in an interview. Hrithik then shot off a legal notice to Kangana asking her to retract the statement. This had led to some mud-slinging between them.
